Cuusrd pier. The Gallia arrived
this morning. The men were
to begin unloading at l O'Clock.
The men were ordered not to
begin work because Cd Dominion
freight was received. The Devon'a,
Of the Anchor Line, Is in the same fix.
Both unions ara hol eful OF success.

The longshoremen employed by the
National Line struck becsuss the COM
psny had employed Italians t. work
in the grain elevator. the grain had

given them steady employment at the
rate OF Sl6 week. The men who
we're worked by the hour SAY no work
will be done to unload the barges, or
at least that an tempt would be made
